Newly diagnosed with a question.
I am a 39 year old father of two with a loving and supportive wife. I was diagnosed with MDS in August. I have been chasing a diagnosis since I went to get a physical in June and my CBC indicated I was anemic. I am currently going to the Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville. The hematologist that I originally went to called me a enigma, in that I should feel horrible but I don't and Thanking God have not been very sick. He actually sent me to Mayo. I was placed on the BMT list and my sister was tested and she was not a match. The transplant coordinator told me that on a preliminary search I had 244 possible matches on the national registry? He said that was very good. Is it? I want to get this started so it can be over.. I am tired of letting MDS throw punches at me, I am ready to start hitting back
